Core Tip The majority of patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) undergo chemotherapy and/or chemoradiotherapy (CRT) in various settings. The safety and efficacy of these treatments may be affected by factors such as sex, age, and body compositions. Furthermore, these factors may be interrelated in the context of chemotherapy and CRT. It is crucial to understand the impact of the three S's (sex, seniors, and sarcopenia) on CRC treatment in clinical practice.
